About

Education has been part of life in and around Norwich's Cathedral Close for over 900 years. We are proud to continue this rich tradition as we prepare young people for 21st century life: the Cathedral oversees our busy lives and underpins the sense of stability with which our surroundings balance the energy of this thoroughly modern co-educational urban day school.

We strive to develop in each of our pupils curiosity and a willingness to explore the many different aspects of our broad provision, including making the most of opportunities for leadership and service within a loving, inclusive, compassionate community (for further details of our key principles, please.
